2 Days Tanzania Safari from Zanzibar to Tarangire and Ngorongoro

Most travelers take a morning flight from Zanzibar to Arusha or Kilimanjaro to start their adventure early. Our team handles the airport pickups so you can transition smoothly from the beach to the bush. This air link makes the short trip to the northern parks very convenient for those on a tight schedule.

Yes, Tarangire and the Ngorongoro Crater are world-class destinations for spotting lions, elephants, buffaloes, and rhinos. While leopards can be shy, the high density of wildlife in these areas gives you an excellent chance of a full house. Your guide will focus on high-activity zones to maximize your sightings in just forty-eight hours.

We can easily modify the schedule to include a stop at a Maasai boma near the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. This experience allows you to learn about traditional customs and witness the vibrant life of the local people. It is a popular addition for those wanting to combine wildlife with human history on their way to the crater.

You will travel in a sturdy 4x4 Land Cruiser equipped with a pop-up roof for optimal photography and viewing. The car also features charging ports for your electronic devices and a cooler box for cold bottled water. Each passenger is guaranteed a window seat to ensure a clear view of the savanna and its inhabitants.

The package covers full-board meals starting from a picnic lunch on the first day to lunch on the second afternoon. You will enjoy hot dinners and breakfasts at your lodge, while lunches are served as picnics in the heart of the park. We also cater to various dietary requirements if you let us know your preferences in advance.

Solo adventurers can either book a private tour for total flexibility or join a shared group to reduce costs. Private tours allow you to customize the start times and specific areas of interest during the game drives. Either way, our professional staff ensures a safe and rewarding experience throughout the entire journey.

The dry season from June to October is perfect because animals gather around the Tarangire River for water. However, the Ngorongoro Crater offers incredible wildlife viewing throughout the entire year due to its permanent water sources. The green season from November to May is also beautiful for bird watching and lush, vibrant scenery.

Most domestic flights use small planes that have a weight limit of 15kg per person in soft bags. We recommend leaving your large suitcases at your Zanzibar hotel if possible and taking only essentials for the two days. This ensures a smoother boarding process and more space for everyone in the safari vehicle.

A sunrise balloon safari can be arranged in Tarangire on your first morning, provided your flight from the island arrives early enough. This offers a spectacular aerial view of the baobab trees and wandering elephant herds before landing for a champagne breakfast. It is a fantastic way to celebrate a special occasion during your short visit to the mainland.
